hah, you're right. somehow all my test-cases used the duplicated on a
multiple match and didn't pick up this simple case.

right, and that's where we have to do it anyway since we otherwise won't

Subject: [PATCH libwacom] libwacom: bail out if a duplicate match string is
found
If two devices use the same match string, something is wrong. Log a critical
error and return a NULL database.
